Bomb threat in the Barriera di Milano neighbourhood, namely in the Cimarosa neighbourhood which is a short distance from Piazza Respighi.
The individuals who had made the bombs, as well as members of the State Police, firemen, and members of the Municipal Police, all arrived on the scene and quickly began to delimit the perimeter and evacuate it so that it could be secured.
A call made by an unknown person to the Intesa Sanpaolo bank office located in via Cimarosa was the impetus for the massive police operation. It is said that a guy asked for a ransom in order to disable the gadget. The location of the branch was made safe.
“Verangela Marino said that as the group leader of Fratelli d’Italia in Circoscrizione 6, I continue to stress that focused and decisive steps are urgently required. This cannot continue in this manner.”
UPDATE: The bomb alert finally went off just after 14:00, after more than four hours had passed since it had been set off. The search of the bomb squad by the police, assisted by canines trained to detect explosives, did not turn up any positive results. At this time, the police are conducting an investigation to determine who made the call that started things off.
